A Message from LWBP Board of Directors:
At LWBP HQ (to be relocated in November – more information, on this completely unrelated topic, to follow shortly) we have received several requests for more information concerning what is still (as of October, 2010) our largest ever project: The Erysichthon-cycle. This largely ignored, poorly received, and mostly misunderstood, multi-media[1] endeavour, by Swedish exile John Lundberg, stands as the inaugural bid for fame by a production company (yes, us) that refuses to play downstream (come on, that’s where the pee ends up, and you know it). Art, we feel, is not about expression, communication, or to be understood. That is for political propaganda and ads about diapers (no, not a redundancy, the latter is for controlling and limiting the former). However, given the ever-plummeting levels of education amongst today’s youth (yes, that could be you), we agreed to try to get the artist to give some initial introductory information, to ease the reception of his opus. He flatly refused: “There is no such thing as an introduction”, said a hand-scrawled note in a soiled brown envelope thrown through our office windows shortly after midnight.
Some time later, at the LWBP-vaults, we found a brief text, and a VHS-cassette labelled “Introduction - or: the problem at hand.” The short film included on the cassette[2] turned out to be a summary of the entire project in the most lucid, clear and direct form. We present it here for your viewing pleasure.
